Hi Rich,

Sorry to have left you hanging -- I thought I had replied to one of the
previous incarnations of the question.

Yes, this is a good thing to do, and I do it sometimes.  Arguably not as
often as I should, but if I am crunched for time it does not always feel
like a strict necessity and can get overlooked.

Thanks for bringing it up,

Ben

Alissa does this for gen-art directorate reviews, see https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/last-call/AKp-b-S4B_ITv8EKg_UgD1wBh3k/ for an example.
